The poorly developed network and the low level of interconnection between sea and land terminals along the North-South and East-West corridors in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) have a negative impact and are a major obstacle to the international competitiveness of these corridors. In order to respond to this challenge, three new high-tech intermodal transport centers have been formed in Lithuania along the trans-European (TEN-T). These centers are designated to respond flexibly to the needs of local and international markets, taking advantage of intermodal transport. The main aim of the article is to explore the attitudes and interests of intermodal transport terminal managers, and other decision makers and experts to use the East-West and North-South international corridors as well as their intentions to develop interoperability between terminals. Based on the research, an innovative model of synchronization transport flows between major intermodal terminals have been proposed.
